Grand Banks’ shareholders at the Pasir Gudang yard

SINGAPORE, 23 November 2017 – Shareholders of Grand Banks Yachts Limited (“Grand Banks” or the “Group”) toured its manufacturing facility in Pasir Gudang, a town at the eastern end of the metropolitan area, for a behind-the-scenes look at the Group’s two world-renowned luxury boat brands.

At the 380,000-square feet yard, senior executives of the Group – including Chief Executive Officer Mark Richards and Managing Director Hank Compton – briefed the audience of 50 on how Grand Banks and Palm Beach boats are built from start to finish.

The Group has been focusing on fresh boat designs and improved production processes as part of efforts to drive growth following the acquisition of Palm Beach Motor Yachts in August 2014. It achieved a net profit of S$0.6 million for the three months ended 30 September 2017, a three-fold rise from S$0.2 million a year ago.

The Pasir Gudang yard has undergone a major revamp and now features new automation, streamlined operations, a sheltered test pool and more usable covered space. The enhancements are expected to lift Group-wide utilisation rates, expand production capacity and shorten the production cycle.

Mr. Mark Richards said: “This tour is part of our commitment to maintaining a direct line of communication with shareholders. We are delighted that they have taken a strong personal interest in the Group and we hope to have more of such interactions with investors in future.”

Mr. Hank Compton said: “Both our brands are widely regarded as some of the world’s best in terms of design, quality and fuel efficiency. Through this yard visit, we hope to impress upon our shareholders the dedication and effort that goes into the design and construction of every boat.”

Grand Banks shareholder Mr. Goh Guan Siong said: “We were impressed by how much the yard has changed since our last visit. The significant progress that has been made here reflects the hard work done by Mark and his team, which is also evident in the company's recent financial results. I am encouraged by the management's willingness to be open with shareholders and look forward to more of such engagements in future.”

Over the last three years, Grand Banks has introduced new models such as the flagship Grand Banks 60, Eastbay 44 and Palm Beach 42. It will unveil the Grand Banks 52 by the end of 2018. ## End of Release ##
